This month we also saw the All Star Game and trade deadline. Did the Twins make a deal? Come find out!

But assuming baseball does have some semblance of a season during the 2020 calendar year, how will it impact the health of MLBers, however stunted it may be?

Velocity was an afterthought, and at times I wondered if they avoided it. Strikeouts were overrated, get that ball on the ground. Despite the inconsistency this volatile philosophy caused, some...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9165</guid><pubDate>Sun, 29 Mar 2020 03:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>How Would a Cancelled 2020 Season Impact the Twins?</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/how-would-a-cancelled-2020-season-impact-the-twins-r9159/</link><description>There seems to be hope between MLB and the MLBPA that there will be a season in 2020. At this point, with millions of Americans on lockdown and or staying home to combat COVID-19, there is still the real fear of a cancelled season. How would that impact the Twins?

However, if you&#x2019;re reading this, you&#x2019;re most likely a fan of the Minnesota Twins and followed the team through some difficult seasons in the previous decade. Today&#x2019;s challenge should be fun and hopefully fulfilling: we get t...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9155</guid><pubDate>Sat, 28 Mar 2020 01:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Building Dr. Taylor-stein's Twins Monster</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/building-dr-taylor-stein39s-twins-monster-r9162/</link><description>With the 2020 baseball season now officially under delay, the Minnesota Twins have time to add to an already-talented team. Only this time the Twins won&#x2019;t be using traditional methods of adding talent.

As the Twins brass looked on at the roster, evaluating who should be the 26th man, they weren&#x2019;t...</description><guid isPermaLink="false">9162</guid><pubDate>Fri, 27 Mar 2020 16:30:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>91/19 World Series Game 5: Nelson Goes Bomba to Stay Alive</title><link>https://twinsdaily.com/minnesota-twins-news/twins/9119-world-series-game-5-nelson-goes-bomba-to-stay-alive-r9158/</link><description>This week, with the help of Out of the Park Baseball, we&#x2019;ve simulated the 91/19 World Series, a seven-game battle between the 1991 Twins and the 2019 Twins.
Facing elimination in game 5 up against a 3-1 deficit, the Bomba Squad climbed back to the tune of a 14-7 drubbing.

The club has been okay through 10 games, but it's a scorching hot start from the top division rival that has us on our heels out of the gate.

Minnesota was suggested to have had dialogue about bringing Nelson Cruz back for the 2021 season.

People have suggested that MLB&#x2019;s Opening Day should be deemed a national holiday (maybe jokingly, maybe not).
